Looks very nice. I'm excited to see how they turn out. However we know they won't be priced competitively with Edge. Probably cost an arm and a leg due to being German. Also, how is it 50-60g lighter? I know the Edge 1.25's come in ~195g. Looking at more like 30-35g max difference.

For a set. The lightest 1.25 rims I have seen weigh ~188gr and ax rims are 55gr lighter than those..And my 1.25 set weighs 415gr for a set (I am very bad at drawing lots) so they are 93gr lighter than my set.

Sorry Raxel, I had a brain fart and misread what you wrote. From the picture they look very nice. It will be interesting to see how the production versions turn out.

Any idea on a price point for them? I'm guessing a pretty penny. Maybe close to $1500-2000 a rim or am I over estimating? AX parts tend to be on the pricey side. Is this their first endeavor with making rims?
